Uncle Larry was one of a kind—a man who exuded coolness and charisma in a way that left a lasting impression on everyone who knew him. From the time I was a kid, riding in his lowrider with those side pipes roaring, I knew he was different. He had that effortless swagger, the kind of confidence that made people want to be around him. When he and Aunt Janet took me to the drive-in, I was just a kid soaking up the excitement of late-night movies while they stole kisses in the backseat. Those summers I spent with them were some of the best times of my childhood. He was a king among men—the kind of person who made the world a little brighter just by being in it. Uncle Larry, will be deeply missed, but the memories he gave us, the lessons he taught, and the love he shared will never fade. Rest easy, Uncle Larry. You were, and always will be, the coolest.
Forever, Greg Simone
